This is how I was talking about I mounted my radio. Only I left the cup holder and I put the radio on the front and another on the box lid. The mount will work also with a military antenna. They make a base (I forget the number) that will fit the military mount and accept the MS-116 etc sections. Will work really good.Mounting the CB was done by cutting the square "Cupholders" out. The ant. is mounted to a square piece of metal slightly larger than the bolt pattern for the military ant. The wire runs through the original hole in the shell. I installed an external speaker so that the radio could be heard.
I will say that I missed out by not having a PRC-77 or compatible radio on a recent convoy. Eventually I'll have both. A military radio for MV events and a CB for off-roading.
If you in the boonies off roading CB might be more useful than ham radio. But having both is not a bad deal either just get your licence.
